A Credit Card Story
Before going to Italy we applied for a new credit card account,
received the cards, and activated them. When we got to Italy and
attempted a purchase, however, the card was not accepted. After
repeated "tests" at different merchants over several days, the account
was finally useable. Again, we had travelers checks so our trip was
not in jeopardy. Suggestion: make a purchase in the USA, to be sure
you can use a card's account.
